Either way, it looked like a pretty hard hit, which couldn't have helped matters any. From the limited footage, it appeared as though there was little/no attempt to flare.
Hard to tell on the vid, but he may have pulled pitch at the very last second, but that would be a bit too late. Probably easy to misjudge over water though...
